Kim Fields Pregnant: Actress Welcoming Second Son Quincy Xavier [VIDEO]

It will be two boys for actress and former child star Kim Fields.

The actress announced she's expecting her second child in early Demeter. According to People magazine she plans on naming her unborn son Quincy Xavier.

The "Facts of Life Star," and husband Christopher Morgan, 37, are already parents to 6-year-old son Sebastian Alexander. The 44-year-old actress made the announcement on her FOX morning show "The Real," scheduled to air next week.

"Sebastian and Christopher are very excited. We're very, very blessed," Fields said. "It was planned. We've actually been trying for a couple years. We had gotten pregnant twice and [miscarried]. Chris and I were very blessed to really have one another, to have our family and friends and out God to really get us through that."

After the announcement, she took to Twitter to thank her fans for their support.

"Good Morning #BlessedFamily!! I thank you all for your support & kind words. There's so many tweets lol but ALL of them are appreciated!" she tweeted.

The actress who suffered from two miscarriages said she was surprised to find out she was pregnant at first. She told the crowd she thought she pre-menopausal at first. In a visit to the doctor's office after catching the stomach bug, she was told that she was two months pregnant.

"Funny enough, for a minute I thought I was getting pre-menopausal 'cuz certain things were starting to be irregular and then other symptoms started -- my memory and I was clumsier than normal which I couldn't even believe was possible," she said. "They tested me and said, 'Oh honey, you're not dehydrated. You're two months pregnant."

Fields and her husband, a Broadway actor, were marred in July 2007.
